Ebanks, Devin
Charge: Driving under the influence
Arrest Date: November 9, 2012
Franchise: Los Angeles Lakers
Age 23
Details: Ebanks was pulled over in the early morning hours in Hollywood on suspicion of drunk driving, after celebrating a birthday party at the Roxbury night club.
Barnes, Matt
Charge: Driving on a suspended license, threatening a police officer
Arrest Date: July 30, 2012
Franchise: Los Angeles Lakers
Age 31
Details: Barnes’ second career arrest started innocuously enough when he was arrested for an outstanding traffic citation, but quickly escalated to a felony when he threatened a police officer. His demonic smile makes for one of the better mugshots – much better than his low-key mugshot following a domestic violence arrest in 2010.
